How to Calculate Number of brick up A wall (Brick work Calculation)
First of all, we do a brick work calculationfor 1 m3 of brickwork volume.
The volume of brick work = 1 m3

Size of brick with mortar = 20 cm x 10 cm x10 cm

Standard size of brick without mortar = 19 cm x 9 cm x 9 cm

Nos of brick required in 1m3 = 1/(0.20×0.10×0.10) = 500 Nos

500 is that the number of bricks required in 1 m3 with mortar. It means mortar volume is additionally calculated within the calculation. So we've to seek out out the particular numbers of bricks and therefore the quantity of mortar.

Actual volume of Brick = 500 x (0.19×0.09×0.09) = 0.7695 m3

Volume of Mortar = 1 – 0.7695 = 0.2305 m3

Adding 10% wastage = 0.2305 + (0.2305×10/100) = 0.2305 + 0.02305 = 0.25355 m3

As this is often the wet volume of mortar, the dry volume is usually 25% quite wet volume.

Add 25% Extra volume for dry volume of mortar.

= 0.25355 + (0.2355×25/100) = 0.25355 + 0.0633875 = 0.3169 m3

So, from above calculation we will say that

Nos. of Brick required for 1 m3 of brick work = 500

Mortar required for 1 m3 of brick = 0.3169 m3
